Exploration of Flight which is part of Wings over the Rockies foundation had a special fly in - with all sorts of weird planes.  Was a nice day to be out at Centennial Airport.

Wheeler, KS

Akron, Colorado

Coming into Atwood , KS

The first three photos are from Wheeler, KS - down K25 going south from St. Francis.  It’s a small cemetery with some interesting things to see.  Next photo is downtown Akron - If you have grain elevators in your downtown then you are by definition RURAL.  Finally is a shelf cloud seen coming into Atwood, KS one morning to work.  Scary but interesting site

While you may think this is a law firm it is the towns I passed thru to get to work this week. All out on the eastern plains of Colorado.  New Definition:  if your grain elevators are part of you downtown then you are RURAL

Whealer, KS

Rocky Mountain Vintage Racing had their annual race at High Plains Raceway.  Some interesting cars and characters that drive them.

Just a few of the sites seen on our Spring trip to New Mexico.  

Easter Sunday finds me traveling for work to Kansas.  I frequently travel on Highway 36. which takes me thru Cope, Colorado.  This small village has seen better days but for things to photograph it can’t be beat.  

U.S. Route 36 (US 36) is an east–west United States highway that travels approximately 1,414 miles (2,276 km) from Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado to Uhrichsville, Ohio. The highway’s western terminus is at Deer Ridge Junction, an intersection in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, where it meets US 34. Its eastern terminus is at US 250 in Uhrichsville, Ohio

Surviving a Zombie apocalypse in Colorado

Recent shot of Arbus on Kentmere 400 film developed in Caffenol Delta formula.

This was the map put out by Storm Prediction Center a day or two before the storms.

This is what it looked like on storm radar for the southern portion of the storm - Alpena is where my brother lives.

Wheeler , KS

Idalia, Colorado

The first two images are from an interesting cemetery near the intersection of Highway36 and Kansas 27.  It is near the town of Wheeler and St. Francis.

As I frequently do, I take the back roads to my job in Kansas and I have started to routinely go thru Cope, Colorado which is very close to the Colorado-Kansas border.  On the Grainery.app I found someone who also takes photos in Cope which is really random and rare given that this town is almost defunct.  So without announcing this as a competition we each show the other our latest “captures”

This roll of film was shot on Adox Color Mission which is a re-release of one of their older formulas.  At first I wasn’t sure what was so special about the film but this roll really sparkled for me, especially the rendering of the blue sky.  I also processed this myself using Cinestill’s 2 bath kit.

Pretty much the last person I would trust.  He’s an Oligarch and that’s the problem. He does what he wants and virtually has no one to answer to.

Before going to dinner we went to the Denver Art Museum for a quick look at a photography exhibition called “Other People’s Photographs”

Then it was onto Fire - the restaurant inside the Art Hotel.  They also had some nice art on the inside
